  2. Predictive modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predictive_modelling

    Predictive modelling uses statistics to predict outcomes. [1] Most often the event one wants to predict is in the future, but predictive modelling can be applied to any type of unknown event, regardless of when it occurred. For example, predictive models are often used to detect crimes and identify suspects, after the crime has taken place. [2]

Uncertainty reduction theory states that the driving force in initial interactions is to collect information to predict attitudes and behaviors for future relationship development.

  4. Predictive analytics - Wikipedia

    For example, identifying suspects after a crime has been committed, or credit card fraud as it occurs. [4] The core of predictive analytics relies on capturing relationships between explanatory variables and the predicted variables from past occurrences, and exploiting them to predict the unknown outcome. It is important to note, however, that ...

  5. Concurrent validity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_validity

    Concurrent validity differs from convergent validity in that it focuses on the power of the focal test to predict outcomes on another test or some outcome variable. Convergent validity refers to the observation of strong correlations between two tests that are assumed to measure the same construct.

    Logistic regression is used in various fields, including machine learning, most medical fields, and social sciences.

  8. Forecasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forecasting

    Forecasting is the process of making predictions based on past and present data. Later these can be compared with what actually happens. For example, a company might estimate their revenue in the next year, then compare it against the actual results creating a variance actual analysis. Prediction is a similar but more general term.
